Purpose and function of the holder

The presented sun visor holder is a part from the Trim, decorative strips and decorations group, responsible for the stable support of the sun visor in the cabin. The design is intended for installation on both the right and left sides, which facilitates fitting to the specific interior configuration of a given vehicle.

The component ensures proper movement of the visor, reduces its play, and helps maintain a consistent headliner line, which is important for both driving comfort and the visual consistency of the interior.

Compatibility with Mercedes models

The Mercedes C117 W176 W246 Sun Visor Clip Holder Left Right has been designed with specific models of the C117, W176, and W246 series in mind. This means it fits the factory headliner geometry, appropriate mounting spacing, and is compatible with the standard sun visors used in these generations.

Thanks to this, with the correct selection of parts for the vehicle, installation is possible without modifications, while maintaining the original appearance and functionality of the interior.

Technical characteristics and installation

The holder is intended for installation in standard mounting points in the headliner, taking into account its placement on the vehicle on the right or left side. The design allows for stable seating of the sun visor's pivot axis, which translates into repeatable, predictable movement of the component during daily use.

The used condition allows for an economical replacement of a damaged holder while maintaining the manufacturer's original specifications. A properly selected component reduces the risk of improper fitment, squeaking, or excessive play in the headliner area.

Practical application and benefits

Using an original holder in place of a damaged or worn one allows for restoring the proper operation of the sun visor, which is important for safety and comfort – especially when driving against the sun. Replacing this component is often sufficient to avoid costly interference with the entire headliner or a complete set of visors.

• Restoration of full sun visor functionality on the driver or passenger side.
• Aesthetic finishing of the headliner area without visible modifications.
• Reduction of unwanted noises and play in the visor mounting area.
• Possibility of use as a replacement during accident or maintenance repairs.
